On the other side, Alice's Western-style Pavilion.

In the early morning, even before the sun rises, the "sound" of cooking is already heard in the Western-style restaurant. Serve tea to the eldest ladies who get up early, watch their sleepy eyes open little by little, wait for their preparation, and then serve a wheat-scented breakfast.

There seems to be a lingering smell in the air. But...... With the passage of time, they will disappear altogether one day. Let the mansion become deserted again, there will no longer be the sound of Alice making trouble, there will be no more scenes when her magic is rampant, no matter how carefully the flower bed is cared for, the flowers will not continue to flourish, this must be their own inadequacy, no matter how the weeds in the yard are removed, they will still grow little by little, which must also be proof that this place is no longer "lively".

Therefore, we must strive to keep everything as it is as much as possible, whether it is the amount of three meals a day, or the knives, forks and plates placed on the table, whether it is the daily cleaning of the room, or the cleaning of the periphery of the Western-style restaurant, whether it is ...... How monotonous it is, too, should be ignored as much as possible.

They can't stop the flow of memories, but ...... At least slow it down a little. Well, even if it's just a little bit, at least...... It's much better than watching the Western-style mansion become deserted.

"Miss Christie, can't you eat yet?"

Although it tastes like chewing wax, Luna keeps stuffing Alice's and Irina's breakfast into her mouth.

I'm going to get fat, but ...... If they don't, there is always a feeling that they have "left". After all, there are other ways to alleviate excessive food intake. Memories that can flow away. But it can never be recovered.

Fortunately, she is not alone. After Alice and the three of them left, Chris, who had nowhere else to go, also moved into the mansion. More or less alleviated the cold situation of some of the foreign mansions, and the two maids who had no "master" for the time being, maintained everything in the foreign mansion little by little.

"Maybe it's because it's autumn and my body is not adapting?

"No...... It's just that in the past few days, I suddenly feel that I have no appetite. As she spoke, Christie put down her knife and fork, "I hope Miss she's safe." ”

Again...... Pray? Miss Christie. It's been weird lately.

After Miss Alice left the mansion, she and Miss Christie did pray for their "safety", and even now, about a month later, every day before going to bed, I would wish them a good "life" in that really "dangerous" world. Miss Christie must have done the same, but ...... Lately, her prayers seem to have become more frequent.

Almost every moment, as soon as she calmed down, she began to pray for Miss Letty's safety. Like now......

"It must be fine, Miss Christie. ”

This was the first time she had been "relieved"? But Luna knew if she hadn't. Even Miss Christie, even the "witch hunter" who made them have nightmares at night. They can also feel panicked and depressed.

"Missy, they are all magicians approved by Teacher Rosie, although it is indeed dangerous outside, but it will be fine. ”

"Sorry...... Sorry, but lately, I've been having nightmares all the time. ”

Clutching her chest, Christie frankly accepted Luna's kindness, and she leaned her body against Luna's chest slightly, "It's all ...... Not too good dreams. Especially the young lady, she seems to be ......"

"It's all said to be a dream, this kind of dream will not become real. Thinking about it, Luna had to comfort Christie in a way that was so clumsy that it almost coaxed a child.

"Actually...... I also can't sleep well these days, although I woke up in the morning and forgot what I dreamed about yesterday, but ...... I guess that's a good thing. Miss Christie, since the eldest ladies are not here, we should take care of the Western-style pavilion. Now we can only 'help' them in this way. ”

“...... Anyway, let's put away the dishes first. ”

After catching her breath for a while, Christie finally breathed a sigh of relief, then stood up and began to clean up quickly. As a maid's "cultivation", no matter how heavy her heart is, she does not show the slightest slackness. In order to save money, I packed up the rest of the dishes, took the dishes to the kitchen steadily, and began to wash them carefully with the fresh water that came from outside.

Luna brought a knife and fork, and soaked the plate in the water. The same amount as before, the number of cutlery that belongs to five people. Call...... Only at this time can you really have the idea of deceiving yourself and being unaware. Seems...... The master and servants in the mansion are still living well.

"Luna, I've decided. ”

While wiping down the plates, Christie said, "If I can, I'd like to get ready and go 'outside' once." ”

"Hey...... But ......"

"I've never been 'outside' yet, but ......"

Swiftly reaching out to take Luna's meal knife that had missed due to sluggishness, Christie woke up the young junior who couldn't resist the shock.

There was a tingling sensation between his fingers, and it seemed that he had just made a cut with a dinner knife. This...... What a low-level mistake. Is it true that we have been thinking and worrying to this extent?

"But...... I'm still worried about Miss's situation. ”

"But...... Teacher Rosie won't agree. Luna hurriedly took the knife, looking a little flustered, and didn't notice the wound on Christie's hand, "Didn't Teacher Rosie come to tell us before? It's very dangerous outside, for us...... Staying in a Western-style restaurant as much as possible is the best option. ”

"That's a sign of retreat. ”

"No, Miss Christie, what we're doing now is the wisest thing to do. If we're in any danger, won't we cause trouble for the ladies?"

Luna looked a little excited, and her knife and fork rattled in the water, "And...... Teacher Rosie will not agree to go 'outside' now, and we can't afford to trouble Teacher Rosie anymore. ”

"I know, but ...... Before I was a 'person', I was also a servant of the eldest lady. I...... You can't be scared and do nothing like this. ”

Christie said and stood up, "Even if you can't find it, at least ...... I don't want to have nightmares all the time anymore. ”

"Miss Christie......"

"Luna, I'm not going to force you to go 'outside' with me, and in fact, if you sneak out without Lady Rosie, your identity and power won't be possible. So ......"

After a pause, Christie said, "You just need to help me hide it, if you don't have any reason to leave the mansion, then I'm different." What excuses can I make...... There are a lot of them. (To be continued.) )
